Sub-cellular chemical mapping in bacteria using correlated cryogenic electron and mass spectrometry imaging Congrats Hannah Ochner and authors on this important paper! Strong collaboration with @kiranrpatil.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... @mrclmb.bsky.social @wellcometrust.bsky.social

Another fantastic study from @lisamaierlab.bsky.social showing how non-antibiotics impact gut ecosytem. Congratulations @ghammeranne.bsky.social et al.!

@skamrad.bsky.social @kiranrpatil.bsky.social show xenobiotics impact growth of gut bacteria and their metabolic homeostasis by affecting amine metabolism ➡️ www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Scientists discover protection from PFAS chemicals #Cambridgeshire #BBCNews 🔗: https://www.bbc.com/news/arti...

Excited to share some key details on our latest research in @natmicrobiol.nature.com reporting intra-cellular accumulation of #PFAS (aka forever chemicals) by certain human gut bacteria. #microsky #mevosky #microbiomesky www.nature.com/articles/s41...

#NewResearch 🚨Out now! Human gut bacteria bioaccumulate forever chemicals, in intracellular aggregates and colonization of gnotobiotic mice with these bioaccumulating bacteria increases faecal PFAS excretion. @kiranrpatil.bsky.social #MicroSky #MicrobiomeSky 🦠 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Beautiful work from my friend @kiranrpatil.bsky.social . Gut bacteria can accumulate Forever chemicals and help us get rid of them! Happy we could contribute! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Gut bacteria to the rescue! 🦠✨ They can shield us from harmful chemicals—and the latest study from Kiran Patil's lab (@kiranrpatil.bsky.social) uncovers how. We’re proud to have contributed to this exciting work! #Microbiome #Detox www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Researchers in the Patil Lab have discovered that certain species of gut bacteria can absorb PFAS. Boosting these species in our gut microbiome could be a new way to protect us from the harmful effects of PFAS. Read more here: buff.ly/4FsVFsS @kiranrpatil.bsky.social @indraroux.bsky.social

Latest study from the lab is online today (and another will be out tomorrow, stay tuned:)). We profiled effect of >1700 chemicals (drugs, pesticides,...) on secretion of amines (involved in gut-brain and gut-immune axis. ) by human gut bacteria. Brilliant work by @skamrad.bsky.social and Tara Davis

Check out our new preprint! We systematically map proteomic and metabolomic interactions between >100 pairs of gut bacteria, detecting metabolic interactions and functionally-related clusters of proteins. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... @kiranrpatil.bsky.social

📢 Fresh off the press and featuring new exciting experiments! 🧪 We show how glycolytic activity instructs germ layer proportions through regulation of Nodal and Wnt signaling - happy to finally share this 😊 doi.org/10.1016/j.st... B2B with @jesseveenvliet.bsky.social lab: doi.org/10.1016/j.st... 🤩

Sweeteners are so common in food and drinks. New work expanding our knowledge base of sweetener-bacteria interactions 👇🏽. Kudos to @sonjablasche.bsky.social @indraroux.bsky.social and others from our lab

Kudos to Ghada @kostchristian.bsky.social team and @metagenomez.bsky.social et al. for this mammoth effort! An important step forward towards understanding natural microbial communities and determinants of their fascinating diversity.

Congratulations to talented @naomiirisvdberg.bsky.social for successfully passing her PhD exam! Very proud of the latest PhD graduate from my lab and the entire team! 🙌🎉🍾

“Manufactured Chemicals and Children’s Health..” – an excellent evidence-based case in N Eng J Med. Despite overwhelming epidemiological evidence (Note: randomised clinical trials are obviously unethical), less than 20% chemicals are tested for toxicity. www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....
